Must have a virus buried somewhere, because my memory & CPU usage is way too high for an idling computer. Windows update refuses to do jack, even when I manually initiate it. Did MS themselves screw up an update? Anyone else having this issue w/Windows 7? Awards

They have literally turned off support for it to get people to get to Win 8 or 10 Awards

Do you possibly have a corsair water cooler and not update the link software in the last couple weeks? Awards

What I was looking for was the specific update that people said jammed their system. I realize MS no longer chooses to offer major software upgrades for 7, but they still offer security updates. I have 10 downloaded, and burned to disk, just didn't feel like going through the motions. Awards

Just change Windows update to manual start or disable and use off line update. I never allowed windows to automatically update, but started to notice performance issues. I use Avast for virus protection, thinking something got by that, or one of MS's updates jizzed things up. Still won't manually update, and cpu usage is 90% on a machine doing nothing. I just shut the %$#%^& thing down until I have time to sort it out. Awards
